Anamarie's request to dismiss was rejected by the court, due to the paperwork missing Luka's signature.

As TMZ first reported, the NBA star moved to dismiss the case -- arguing that her petition for child support and attorneys' fees had no legal grounds because it was filed in California ... when the kids live in Slovenia.
